  1. Excellent looking camp, where is it?
  2. Renting paddocks out to the horsey set gives a much greater return than putting a crop on the same amount of land. I bet you are livid now?
  3. More than welcome here Ratty, wherever I'm pulled.
  4. Nah mate, into the Moorlands, a few miles over from your outlaws, if it pulls off.
  5. I had to laugh with you Stubby, but it's made my mind up, I'm packing down and moving back North. I think I've sorted a place to pull the truck on, it might take a few weeks to sort but I want to be around my lot.
  6. I understand that as we get older more of our mates shuffle off, but three of them are lads under 60, one killed himself with the booze, one died in what seems to be an accident, but it's still a fair tally.
  7. I've been to two mates funerals already this year, I've heard today another mate died in his sleep last night. Then I get another call to tell me an old boy I've met a few times from another forum died in a light aircraft crash yesterday. I'll be glad when this year is over.
  8. Bang on, I'm a one man band. I've broken my own gear and other people's over the years, suck it up, it happens!
  9. If you don't mind a run out try this fella, he used to get loads of them used once for molasses from the beet factory in Bury-st-Ed's.

  10. Bit like how Bolam described me recently bud, part of the furniture. Hotel California.
  11. You bend it, you mend it in my eyes. Was the job subbed out, or were you getting freelance labour in to help?
  12. Here in good ol' Blighty the government have driven fear into people, and its backfired. They are telling people to get back to work, send your kids back to school. Listening to the callers on the wireless today it ain't going to happen. Look before you leap springs to mind.
  13. Got it this morning off some old cow down the village shop... you can't go in there without a ?, my reply, I'm not in the shop yet, mind your own business. She mooched off muttering to herself.
  14. No, I heard about it and stayed away. Shame Stone is a cracking town. Not surprising the virus is spreading though.
  15. Yes, being dead is a bonus before the government start nicking our body parts.
  16. Them Derbyshire lads...
  17. Am I the only one that doesn't know what this means?
  18. You missed the 'All work guaranteed', Matty.
  19. Looking good, Gary.
  20. No, when one of my longest standing mates was on his death bed I'd have told the 'hospital' anything they wanted to hear to get in there. Don't like it?, that's your choice. I wasn't blaming anyone, telling it how it was more like. We didn't have face coverings, neither did the NHS staff. We could blame each other for spreading Covid-19 but I WAS going to see my mate.
  21. I've just been away around the Staffordshire/Derbyshire Moorlands, virtually no one wearing a face covering in those areas. Stoke, Liverpool, Manchester City centres most everyone is wearing a covering. Back to Suffolk today after looking in on two jobs in Cambridgeshire, next to no folk wearing a face covering. Strange times.
  22. That's really sad news. Al was a really nice bloke. RIP.
  23. That's right, we chucked the ladders back on the truck, hitched the roller up and went to the pub iirc.
